How is the overall balance looking as far as CV strength? You’re at a point where the tide is certainly turning in land based air, at least in India, it seems. My impression from other AARs has been that mid ‘43 and beyond Japan starts to really suffer from a lack of armor and marines (and landing craft) such that invasions once they’re ashore are almost impossible to dislodge, even if the naval control can’t be maintained; is that what you’re counting on?

The loss of those landing craft would be crippling were you Japan. As it stands you just used that assault shipping to good effect, but how do you get those troops out again with them lost? Are you planning to extract them after landing base forces, or leaving them in place until you can get your carriers in a few months to provide extraction cover? Presumably you'll hunt down the Milne Bay forces in a couple of days.

I didn’t watch that video previously, and never really understood just how painful making these updates must be. Thanks again for doing this and hope the battle goes well!
